The ketogenic diet has gained a lot of popularity in the past couple of years.
This diet, or keto as it’s more widely known, is a high-fat low carbohydrate diet. While some people take this to mean loads of conventionally raised meat and dairy, the true (and beneficial version) means lots of beneficial fats from things like avocados, nuts and seeds, and coconut – high-quality protein from clean sources like grass-fed meat and pasture-raised eggs; and plenty of non-starchy vegetables.
Listen to Dr. Merritt discuss the benefits of this diet, and offer a suggestion for how to ease into it if you’re not sure where to start.
